General Description

The following table briefly identifies the various modules of the gaming machine.Table 1-1 Video Gaming Machine Modules

Machine ModuleCabinet, Door and Top Box. Belly Panel Door

DescriptionThe physical outer enclosure which provides for the location and mounting of other modules. This door is located on the main door, below the mid trim, and provides access to the note stacker (where fitted) and main door fluorescent tube. This door is fitted with a lock and a battery-backed security switch. High resolution 640 x 400 pixels for improved-quality graphics. The monitor is the main medium for displaying game operation and status to the player. The Main printed circuit board (PCB) provides primary control of the gaming machine. The Main Board is interfaced (via the Backplane) to all the major components of the machine. The board receives signals from, and sends control signals to machine components. The Main Board houses the central processor and other logic components for game generation and video drivers, security items, power control, memory storage, and communications. The Backplane houses an array of connectors which are used to electrically connect (via direct mechanical coupling or through looms and ribbon cables) the various electrical components of the machine to the Main Board. The I/O Driver Board drives the lamps, receives inputs from the pushbuttons, interfaces with the coin handling system, and extends communication access. The Communication Configuration Board (CCB) 'piggy-backs' to the Main Board. The board is used to set up the communications channels of the Main Board (up to three) for external networks, bill acceptor and printer. The logic cage consists of a secure, steel cabinet that houses the Main, Communications Configuration, and I/O Driver PCBAs. The section of the Interface Board that interfaces with the Main Board and the I/O Driver Board is also located within the logic cage. The power supply assembly converts the AC mains input voltage into low voltage DC power for the various machine modules and circuits. Power is directed via the Interface Board to the machine components. The video monitor receives AC power directly from the power supply assembly. The function of the coin handling system is to check the validity of coins inserted, establish a count and pass signals to the Main Board. The coin handling system directs coins to either the hopper, cash box, or coin tray. The MAV500 is compatible with several different coin handling systems. The hopper acts as a holding unit for coins. When instructed by the main board, the hopper returns coins to the player. For each coin ejected, the hopper sends a signal to the Main Board. When the required number of coins has been dispensed, the Main Board signals the hopper motor to stop. The function of the bill acceptor is to accept valid note currency and register the appropriate number of credits for gameplay. A note stacker is used to store the notes and to record monetary and statistical information. The information stored in the stacker may be read by a PC-based system away from the gaming floor without opening the stacker.

General Description

Player Communication (if used)

The function of player communication is to allow a player, using an identification card, to 'log on' to a network system when playing a machine. The network system maintains a record of player transactions, and allows messages to be sent to individual players. The player communication module can be attached to the side of the gaming machine or fitted in the top box. Electromechanical meters are used to record accounting data in a physical format. The signals for the meters are received from the Main Board, via the Backplane. The ticket printer is an electronic device mounted within the cabinet, it is used for providing the player with a printed ticket for redeemable credits. The printer, when substituted for a hopper, may also keep a second copy of all tickets printed for additional audit information. The function of the communications interface is to enable the machine to be linked to a network and/or subsidiary equipment. The communications interface may be linked to various machine modules, including security, and transmits signals from these inputs as each one changes status. Multi-level light towers may be used to provide an additional level of customer service and security.

General Description

1.2 Basic OperationThe gaming machine functions are controlled by an advanced software and hardware platform that gives operators greater control over machine functions, easier maintenance, and simplified machine setup. New games developed with the software provide higher quality graphics, new sounds, and a wider variety of features. The machine has two major modes of operation: Play mode and Operator mode. The machine is in Play Mode when the cabinet door is closed and locked, the Audit key switch is in the OFF position and there are no fault or lock-up conditions. The machine is in Operator Mode when the Audit key switch is in the ON position. The operator mode provides a range of operational procedures, data displays, and specific machine functions, all of which are fully controlled by the Operator Mode Menu system and the on-screen guidance. The functions of the operator mode are explained in detail in the chapter Machine Modes. When the machine is in operator mode, normal game operation is not possible. However, demonstration mode and combination test mode enable gameplay without using currency.

1.2.1 Play ModeWhen in Play Mode, the machine: operates security and audit features, runs self-checking and testing continuously, permits gameplay, monitors and records gameplay activities continuously, displays comments and guidance for players, operators and technicians.

Basic machine operation in Play Mode is shown in Figure 1.3. Depending on the machine configuration, credits may be registered by inserting coins, tokens, or bank notes, or by using a cashless system. With a cashless system, credits are transferred to and from the machine through either a computer link or a smart card. The machine has security features for screening the currency tendered to ensure that only valid currency is accepted. If the currency is accepted by the machine, the playbuttons on the mid-trim become active and flash. The player may then insert more currency, play a game by pressing one of the flashing playbuttons, or have the machine return the current credit total by pressing the CASHOUT pushbutton. The player determines how many credits to wager by pressing one of the BET playbuttons, and the BET meter on the display screen shows the credits wagered.

USA Revision - 01

1-9


General Description

Once the player starts a game by pressing one of the active playbuttons, the machine runs the game sequence and displays the outcome on the screen. If the result is a winning combination, the player may gamble the win (if the gamble feature is available); otherwise, the machine increments the credits won. If the result is not a winning combination, the player may continue gameplay provided there are credits remaining. The machine is equipped with electronic audit meters which continuously monitor and record credit movement and game activity. Electromechanical meters may also be fitted. The electronic meters are accessed through the Operator Mode. The information in these meters is used for audit calculations and security purposes. If the machine encounters an abnormal condition, it alerts the operator by automatically entering Machine Lockup. In lockup, gameplay is disabled to prevent any further player interaction and guidance information is displayed in the game message area. The lockup condition can be identified by examining the Current Lockup screen, which is accessed from the Operator Mode Menu.

1.2.2 Operator ModeWithin Operator Mode (Audit Key ON), the following options are available:

machine identification metering information diagnostic information operator setup/selection miscellaneous current lockup mode.

In Operator Mode, the electronic audit meters and the electromechanical meters (if fitted) do not function. Menu selections may be used to review the machine details, select new configurations, and carry out machine tests. Refer to the chapter Machine Modes for detailed information.

3.1 Modes of OperationThe gaming machine is operated in two main modes, Play Mode and Operator Mode. Play Mode permits gameplay while the machine is fully operational and the cabinet door is closed. Operator Mode allows the operator to configure the machine, view audit information, carry out machine tests, and reset machine faults. Turning the Audit Key ON switches the machine from Play Mode to Operator Mode. The gaming machine may be configured to play one of several types of games, the most common being spinning reel games and poker games. Although spinning reel games are featured in this chapter, the explanations and information given can be easily adapted to other game types. The options and procedures outlined are similar for all game types.

3.2 Play ModeThe machine is in Play Mode when the cabinet door is closed and locked, and there are no active lockup conditions. In Play Mode the machine:

Figure 3-1 Typical Format of Game Display

Figure 3-1 shows the format of a game display. The symbols on the screen will vary depending on the particular game software being used. The CREDIT, BET, and WIN game meters show the number of credits applicable at the current stage of the game. Comments appear in two message lines to guide players and operators as the game progresses. Machine conditions, including security alerts, are also displayed in the message area. Examples of comments are: Game Over Main Door Open Coin Diverter Fault COMBINATION TEST

Lockup fault messages are listed in Section 3.3.6, Current Lockup Menu Items. In Play Mode the machine operates with full security features. For example, the machine monitors operations and alerts operators should malfunction or tampering occur. Electronic meters and electromechanical meters (if fitted) record details of gameplay and machine operations in Play Mode.
